Sue McKinley, last year’s “Top Sales Agent” for Alain Pinel Realtors, is watching the trends and has offered some words as to why now might be a good time for you to buy.

Reader, Shannon, has a master bedroom that is currently in transition. She had just purchased new bedding and pillows and is looking to tie it all together. You can see the room as-is in the picture below.
Here are my observations:

I took frames that I [...]

This teeny-tiny room is home to a queen-sized bed, an adorable re-vamped vintage dresser, and every other posession I own that I’m not quite sure what to do with.
